Literary Birthday – 25 September – Luanne Rice

Missing pieces do more than complete the puzzle, they fill in an empty space.

The biggest mistake any of us can make is thinking that love is a feeling, an emotion. It’s not that at all. It’s an action.

Our stories remind us how precious and fragile life can be– and that we must risk our hearts everyday to know happiness.

Sometimes you have to act a little crazy just to stay sane.

After 30 novels, release day is still a thrill. Its always a little bittersweet, too.
